Hope you like my caricature here - this was done as part of an Xmas card at my work, a major Internet hardware manufacturer - but I'm drawn next to a Lotus Engine, not a router.... seems it's obvious to one and all where my heart lies!
So
here's my Giugiaro Turbo Esprit - the
lucky recipient of all this attention - I still think she's
nice for a "donor" car!
It was my dream to own an original Giugiaro Lotus Turbo Esprit, in
JPS black and gold colours,
since my first visit to a Grand Prix, which was the John
Player British Grand Prix of 1978 at Brands Hatch
I realised my dream to own a Lotus Turbo
Esprit in 1992... it seemed wonderful and almost surreal to
see my name on the owners documentation and the lines of the
striking Giugiaro design adorning my driveway!
A 1984 Turbo Esprit in JPS Black & Gold colours - Glorious!!
and all for the princely price of £6,800
